Normally, all should work out of the box, except the [[Broadcom_BCM4312]] which needs some tweaking. The Network Controller (Atheros) is buggy in the 2009.8 iso packed with a 2.6.30 kernel, so at first nothing is detected at all (in dmesg as of in ifconfig -a). If you're in that case, see : http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=728569 . The bug has been corrected in the kernel, so this thread will become irrelevant with a new iso.

Kernel Mode Setting (KMS) works well on the 11z, allowing the native resolution to work at init level 3, and flickerless switching between the terminal and X sessions. See "Early Start" section in [[Intel]] for more details.
